WE WANT BOLO CLEANUP NOW. Barr. Mela Oforibika.

UNEP "ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT OF OGONILAND" REPORT, 2011 at Page 53 states as follows " Bodo West is an area within the extensive network of deltaic creeks. Though uninhabited it includes a number of oil wells. The Wells themselves are submerged, while the associated production station (now decommissioned ) is on land. Bodo West is officially mapped as belonging to Ogu/Bolo LGA but since there are no local settlements, it has been regarded by both SPDC and the Ogoni people as part of the Ogoniland oil facilities. Bodo West was therefore included in the scope of UNEP'S work."
The twisted logic of Shell, Ogonis and UNEP is so weird and funny if it were not so serious as to constitute ethnic cleansing! Consider that Niger Republic can cross the boundaries with Nigeria into the desert area uninhabited in Sokoto State and lay claim to facilities there as being part of Niger Republic !!!. A recipe for war you might say rightly.
Can you cross LGA boundaries and claim facilities that do not belong to your people just because the behemoth called Shell wants to pit brother against brother? The Bolo people in Ogu/Bolo LGA will peacefully resist any attempt to take us off the map of Rivers state by Shell in league with the Ogonis (enacting the Stockholm Syndrome). LET THE ANCIENT LANDMARKS REMAIN AND TRUTH PREVAIL.
We do not want a separate country or state. We want justice and respect. UNEP Cleanup of Ogoniland should stop at Ogoniland LGA. Kindly do a Bolo Cleanup as 90% or the immediate riverine area impacted by the 2008/2009 Bodo oil spill is in Bolo territory. WE WANT BOLO CLEANUP NOW!!!
